Definitions
- the present invention is directed to a panel air filter with a gasket of non-woven felt. More particularly, the present invention is directed to a panel air filter for filtering combustion air of an internal combustion engine, wherein the panel air filter has a gasket of non-woven felt and interfaces with a plastic housing without bonding thereto.
- peripheral polyurethane gaskets tend to bond to the NYLON® housings making it very difficult to dislodge used filter elements for replacement by fresh filter elements.
- the problem is especially acute with respect to filter housings in which filter elements are mounted in trays which are slid into the intake air housings. If the air filter elements become bonded to the housings, it may be necessary to destroy the housings in order to extract used air filters therefrom since bonding prevents sliding the trays out to remove used filters.
- the present invention is directed to an air filter element for mounting in an air filter housing to deliver clean combustion air to an internal combustion engine wherein the air filter housing is made of plastic material.
- the air filter element is comprised of a panel of pleated filter media having a first face and a second face, the second face having a filtering area for receiving dirty air.
- the second face has a clean air exit portion and a peripheral support area.
- a peripheral seal made of a felt material, not directly bondable with the plastic material of the housing, is disposed on the peripheral support area of the second face of the pleated filter media.
- the felt material is made of polyester fiber and the air filter housing is made of thermoplastic polyamide (NYLON®).
- the felt material is about 1 ⁇ 2inch thick and is adhered to the peripheral support area of the first base by hot melt, polyamide adhesive.
- the preferred pleated filter media is a paper filter media which has spacers formed therein by embossments in the media.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a panel filter element configured in accordance with the principles of the present invention
- FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a filter media block used in the filter element of FIG. 1 showing the clean side of a filter media block;
- FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing the dirty side of the filter media element of FIG. 1;
- FIG. 5 is a perspective view showing the panel air filter element of FIG. 1 being mounted in a tray prior to insertion into an air filter housing;
- FIGS. 6 and 7 are perspective views showing the tray being slid into the air filter housing with the panel air filter mounted on the tray, and
- FIG. 8 is a side view of the housing with a portion broken away to show the seal of the panel air filter element positioned within the housing.
- FIG. 1 there is shown a perspective view of the clean face of a panel filter element 10 configured in accordance with the principles of the present invention which is used with an air intake filter housing made of NYLON®.
- the filter element 10 includes pleated paper filter media 12 and a precut peripheral seal 14 made of polyester fibers formed into a non-woven felt mat having a first sealing surface 15 , an edge sealing surface 16 and a second sealing surface 17 .
- the fitter element 10 is mounted in the air intake housing of FIGS. 5-8 with the clean side facing up and the dirty side facing down so that the pleated filter media 12 has peaks at the bottom and valleys at the top. This is because the dirty air flows first through the bottom of the filter element over the peaks and exits as clean air through the top of the filter element 10 past and through the valleys.
- the filter media 12 has a clean side face 18 defined by the plane which includes the valleys 19 of the filter media. Between the valleys 19 of the filter media are gaps 20 which terminate at a dirty side face 21 of the filter media in peaks 22 .
- the clean side face 18 of the filter media 12 is divided into a central area 30 and a peripheral area 32 .
- the central area 30 provides the clean side face 18 of the filter media 12 with an area through which filtered air passes, while the peripheral area 32 is covered by and adheres to the precut peripheral seal 14 .
- the precut peripheral seal 14 configured of polyester fibers into a felt mat, has wide bead 36 of adhesive deposited on second sealing surface 17 .
- the bead 36 of adhesive is a thermosetting polyamide adhesive which bonds with both the polyester fibers on second sealing surface 17 of the felt gasket 14 and with the paper 12 of the filter media in the peripheral area 32 .
- the adhesive bead 36 provides a clean side seal which keeps the unfiltered air from passing between the filter media 12 and gasket 14 .
- the polyesterfelt gasket 14 extends laterally about 1 ⁇ 2inch beyond the filter media 12 to provide a sealing surface portion 38 which faces toward the dirty side face 21 of the filter element 10 .
- dirty air flows upward through the panel filter element 10 over the peaks 22 and into the gaps 39 between the panels of the pleated filter media 12 .
- the dirty air then flows through the panels of the filter media 12 and exits as clean air into the gaps 20 between the valleys 19 (see FIGS. 1 and 2 ).
- the clean air then passes from the clean side face 21 of the panel filter element 10 on to the engine as combustion air.
- the panel air filter element 10 is shown being mounted on a tray 40 of an air filter housing 41 with the clean side face 18 facing up to provide the downstream or clean side of the panel air filter element.
- the tray 40 has a rim 42 on which the first sealing surface 38 of panel filter element 10 rests.
- the tray 40 is slid into the air filter housing 41 through a slot 44 in the housing with the polyester felt seal 14 sliding beneath a downwardly facing sealing surface 46 around the periphery of the slot through the housing.
- a panel 48 on the front of tray 40 closes the opening 44 and latches 50 retain the tray within the housing 41 .
- FIG. 8 shows a rear portion of the housing 41 with portions of its wall cut away, it is seen that the sealing surface 15 on the seal 14 abuts the downwardly facing sealing surface 46 of the housing 41 while the sealing surface 38 of the filter element bears against the rim 42 of the tray 40 .
- the seal 14 of the filter element 10 is compressed because the bottom surface 52 of the wall 54 which provides the rim 42 of the tray 40 is cammed by surface 56 on the curved bottom 58 of the housing toward the sealing surface 46 of the housing.
- a locator tab 60 projects laterally from one side of the seal 14 to prevent the filter element 10 from being reinserted into the housing 41 in the wrong orientation after being inspected for clogging during service.
- the filter element 10 becomes adjusted to one orientation as it is used and does not necessarily seat properly in the housing if reversed upon reinsertion.
- the tray 40 is modified slightly to provide an area at the panel 48 to accommodate the locator tab 60 .
